"Perhaps more ominously for his ( Newt's )rapidly fading hopes for a 2012 Presidential bid, conservatives are beginning to question his integrity. His constant repetition of the false "she's locally selected" mantra seems as off message as Scozzafava's numerous well documented campaign missteps."
"Either Newt Gingrich is lying, or someone misled him."
But how can "the smartest guy in the room", with a reputation as a scholar and seeker of truth have been so easily misled about a set of facts that could be discerned with half an hour's worth of phone calls?"

It's easy to be misled when you want to be misled.
Gee, maybe Newt’s not the “smartest guy in the room” afterall.
Newts been too busy hawking his books to do his homework. Somebody fed him a line of crap and he bought it. I heard him just the other night say he just “RECENTLY heard about the Rasmussen Presidential Poll that survey strongly favorable and strongly unfavorable”. If that is the case, he’s really out of touch.
Michael Steele on Hannity radio yesterday kept saying that Scuzzafava(?) was chosen by the Repubs in the district in a primary.
Someone who knows - please tell us - was she chosen by a primary or not?
“But how can “the smartest guy in the room”, with a reputation as a scholar and seeker of truth have been so easily misled”

mmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Newt lost any and all his trust when he decided to sit on the couch with Nancy and espouse global warming lies.
He is history.
We will remember 1994, but not the Newt since he retired from Congress.
Bingo
Nope, no primary.
When he decided to screw two wives did it for me.
“Someone who knows - please tell us - was she chosen by a primary or not?”
No, she was picked by the head of the party in the area.
agree!
His answer was perfect, "Did anyone tell Newt to sit on a coach with Nancy Pelosi?"
Shooooo.....Newt Be Gone!
“Nope, no primary.”
Well, has anyone told Newt and Steele that?
I came to that conclusion the moment he accepted that multi-million dollar book advance in the weeks following the 1994 election.
Sure, it was legal, but it stunk to high heaven. I was really disappointed in Rush, who carried Newtie's water in the aftermath.
I don’t necessarily question his integrity, I question is political acumen. How could he misread the mood of the people whose votes he needs so badly.
